To make Christmas cheesecake, start by lining the bottom of a cheesecake pan with parchment paper and sliced fruit cake. Then, bake the sliced fruit cake in the oven for 10 minutes at 180 degrees Celsius. Next, while that's baking, mix together cream cheese, sour cream, vanilla, brandy, nutmeg, sugar, and eggs to make the cheesecake filling. Finally, pour the mixture over the fruit cake slices in the pan and bake it for 45 more minutes before refrigerating the cheesecake overnight.
